Deprecating .xyz url

Earlier this year, we communicated migration to api.poap.tech base URL, and as a result, we are now deprecating the older base url api.poap.xyz on Nov 25, 2022. If you are already using api.poap.tech this change will not impact you.
If you aren't already, the implementation on your end should be pretty straightforward. Only two modifications are needed in order to use the newer version of our API.

Changing the base URL on all API calls from api.poap.xyz to api.poap.tech

All requests should now include an additional header

  • Requests hould now contain the header X-API-Key={apikey}, where {apikey} is your unique API key attached below: secretlink password: {pass}
  • Your API key is unique and static, so please store it safely. If your API key is compromised, we can provide a replacement
  • For example, a header with the new API key would look like this: curl -vvv -H "X-API-Key: myapikey" https://api.poap.tech/paginated-events?limit=100&offset=0&sort_dir=asc&sort_field=name
  • If you don't already have an API key, request here

Captcha as a parameter is removed from PUT /secret-requests. And as a result, Captcha is also removed from GET /secret/{secret_word} effective Nov 18.

April 13, 2022
